歡迎來到有意生活！我是依蓮。 十年前從台灣搬到法國求學與工作，到創業成為跨文化教練、在南法育兒的媽媽，生活改變了很多，但我始終相信：有意識地生活，能幫助我們在每一個人生階段，更接近真實的自己。 這個節目最初談的是自我成長、跨文化生活與有意識的選擇；而現在，我想把對話帶進母職、身份轉變，以及在異鄉建立歸屬感的旅程。 如果你也正在海外生活、育兒，或在人生轉變中重新認識自己，希望你能在這裡找到一些共鳴與陪伴。 ✨ Know yourself. Belong anywhere. — Welcome to Intentional Living Chats. I'm I-Lien. Since moving from Taiwan to France, life has taken me through many transitions — including the biggest one so far: becoming a mother abroad. While the seasons of my life have changed, the heart of this podcast remains the same: exploring what it means to live with intention and stay connected to who we are. What began as conversations about personal growth, intercultural living, and intentional choices has naturally evolved into reflections on motherhood abroad, identity shifts, and creating a sense of belonging far from home. If you're navigating life between cultures, raising children away from home, or rediscovering yourself through change, I'm glad you're here. ✨ Know yourself.

    Ep.20 / When Motherhood Abroad Feels Like Too Much

    I didn't plan to disappear for over a year. Then I became a mom. In this episode, I'm sharing the real reason I've been away, what motherhood abroad has taught me about identity, belonging, and emotional overwhelm, and why I created When It Feels Like Too Much for moms navigating life far from home. Plus, a little preview of what's coming next on Intentional Living Chats. ✨ When It Feels Like Too Much: https://www.intentionallivingchats.com/ ✨ Deep coaching conversation with I-Lien: https://cal.com/ilien/coaching ✨ Chat with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/intentional.living.chats/ ✨ Reach me at: hello@intentionallivingchats.com -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

    Ep.19 / Occupational Therapist to Coach: Navigating Career and Life Transitions with Awareness / Milinda Alexander

    What if the beliefs holding you back aren’t facts - but just “sticky thoughts”? In this episode, I chat with Milinda Alexander, Professional Certified Coach (PCC), to hear her journey from occupational therapist to solution-focused coach. We talk about how self-awareness can be a powerful tool for serving others (what therapists call “therapeutic use of self”), how asking the right questions can spark real motivation and change, how to structure your day with focus, and when to trust your intuition. With over 30 years of experience working in mental health, Milinda shares how to spot and shift sticky thoughts - the false beliefs like “I’m not good enough” - and create new patterns that empower you to move forward. She also shares her top book recommendations that continue to inspire her own journey. Whether you’re rethinking your career or learning to quiet self-doubt, this conversation offers both practical tools and insights to embrace change with clarity and courage. ✨ Reach out to Milinda: coachingwithMilinda@gmail.com ✨ Your emotional companion for motherhood abroad: https://www.intentionallivingchats.com/ ✨ A deep coaching conversation with I-Lien: https://cal.com/ilien/coaching ✨ Chat with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/intentional.living.chats/ ✨ Reach me at: hello@intentionallivingchats.com -- Hosting provided by SoundOn
